Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Brown 1 1/2 pounds of 90 percent lean ground beef over medium heat, then drain off the fat. In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with a package of taco seasoning mix, 2 tablespoons of water and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.

Using two 8-ounce packages of crescent dough, unroll the dough, and separate it to make 16 triangles. Place the triangles in a circle on a large, round baking stone so that the points extend over the edge and the wide sides form the border of about a 5-inch space in the center. The triangles should overlap slightly.

Scoop or spoon the meat and cheese mixture evenly over the dough so it makes a ring shape. Roll the points of the dough up over the filling, tucking them under at the center; the filling will show through the gaps in the dough. Lightly beat 1 egg white, and brush it over the top. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese over that. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the dough becomes golden brown.
